        Very nice! I love that color, I have a tank and tail for my 78 750 painted that color but need redone to be perfect. What did you do for the paint code?

          gs750 repaint

          Hi all, The paint code is suzuki ZCK supreme red effect, x2324. It is a colour for suzuki swift cars, and it gliters in the sunlight it is the best i could match with the paint chips at work. And no i dont paint for a living, i swing spanners . But the gun i used was a devilbiss gti pro, borrowed from my son Adam who is a painter. This is not my first try at painting but i dont think i am a pro. The colour is water base with 2k anti scratch laqucer and flows out nice.

                  Thanks for that gatekeeper, i was unsure how to do that. I need to get up to speed at posting pictures. My garage looks untidy, but it does the job, had to wait for the wind to drop to paint i have been on with it for weeks. The weather has been bad of late .

                    That's such a lovely paint job. Anyone know the code for a Suzuki orange?
